That way, when they get merged into Linus's tree eventually, they will be automagically sent to the stable@kernel.org alias, so I know to add it to the tree at that time. It saves you time, and me time, so I don't have to go hunt for this upstream sometime in the future. thanks, greg "i need more time saved" k-h
